Treatment information
Helpful information for clients before choosing permanent makeup, microneedling, facials or Melanin Care.
Acne, blackheads & whiteheads
Acne can form when pores become clogged with oil, dead skin cells and bacteria. Blackheads are open clogged pores exposed to air, while whiteheads remain closed under the skin surface. Professional facials, extractions and skin treatments may help improve congestion and texture over time.
Why avoid caffeine and alcohol before PMU?
Alcohol and caffeine may increase sensitivity, bleeding, swelling and discomfort during permanent makeup treatments. For best healed results, avoid alcohol, caffeine and energy drinks before your appointment where suitable for you.
Pregnancy & breastfeeding for permanent makeup
Permanent makeup is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Hormonal changes may affect skin sensitivity, healing, pigment retention and final results.
Why permanent makeup is not suitable while breastfeeding
Permanent makeup is generally not recommended while breastfeeding because your body is still going through hormonal changes that may affect skin sensitivity, swelling, healing and pigment retention. This means the final healed colour may be less predictable and the skin may react differently than usual.
During breastfeeding, the body is also focused on recovery and milk production. Even though PMU is a cosmetic treatment, there is still a healing process involved, and it is best to wait until your body has settled before having brows, lips or eyeliner tattooed.
Another reason is comfort and safety. Permanent makeup may involve topical numbing, pigment implantation and aftercare products. Waiting until after breastfeeding allows the appointment to be planned more safely and helps achieve a more stable healed result.
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or recently gave birth, please message Kaiu Beauty Studio before booking so I can guide you honestly and recommend the safest timing for your treatment.
Why multiple sessions may be needed
Skin heals gradually and every client responds differently. Skin type, hormones, aftercare, friction, sun exposure, lifestyle and pigmentation depth can all affect results. Multiple sessions help build results safely and gradually.
What is Salmon DNA microneedling?
